Marquee for "The Machine"...
« on: October 30, 2004, 03:09:55 pm »
I'm a complete Photoshop novice so I found some wallpaper on the web, modified it a little and added a logo.  Any thoughts on how this will look backlit or opinions in general?

Thanks,

Coop

I like it.  The one thing I would point out is that even a 1600x1200 wallpaper is too low-res for a high quality print.  Most people recommend 300dpi, which in my case for a 26"x8" marquee is 7725x2250.

Yeah, the image I have is only 72 dpi and I've been told that up-converting the dpi in Photoshop doesn't work very well.  Thanks for the info.
